Description

This collection brings together the influential parenting columns of Ursula Wise, the pseudonym for Susan Isaacs, who served as agony aunt for The Nursery World between 1929 and 1936. Isaacs was an eminent educationalist and pioneering psychoanalyst whose thoughtful, theory-informed advice transformed how parents understood child development and education during the early twentieth century. Her clear, practical responses to correspondents' questions about nursery education and family life remain remarkably relevant to modern parenting challenges. This Routledge edition preserves Isaacs' groundbreaking insights into preschool education, child psychology, and parent-child relationships, offering contemporary readers access to foundational ideas that shaped modern educational practice. Whether you're interested in the history of early childhood education, parenting philosophies, or the work of Susan Isaacs herself, this collection demonstrates how her pioneering approach to child development continues to influence educational thinking today.
